When everything seem to be goneThe worst thing to do is sit down and mournDon't let frustration get the better of youAnd make you do things you should never doYou got to keep the faith, you can't surrenderYou never know, tomorrow may be brighter.

As long as you have health and strengthReaching your goal, nothing should preventEvery time you fall, get up againDon't sit down there like that and complainYou got to stand up and continue fightingDon't give up! Keep courage, you must win...don't you know

A Note From The Gull

Thank you, Merchant. I really, really needed this message today. You have helped to lift the enervating pall that's been dragging me down.

"Patria est communis omnium parens" - Our native land is the common parent of us all. Keep it beautiful, make it even more so.

Blessed is all of creationBlessed be my beautiful peopleBlessed be the day of our awakeningBlessed is my countryBlessed are her patient hills.

FEEDBACK

Lord, Please walk beside me through this day. Clear the heavy air with the lightness of Your Presence. Guide my hands and steady my heart that I may give comfort when I cannot give hope, that I may give relief when I do not have a cure, and that I may radiate Your healing peace when the limits of science, time, and the human body overwhelm us all.Amen
